Pharmacologic Expansion of Donor-Derived, Naturally Occurring CD4+Foxp3+ Regulatory T Cells Reduces Acute Graft-versus-Host Disease Lethality Without Abrogating the Graft-versus-Leukemia Effect in Murine Models

TL;DR: The results provide the first demonstration of the efficacy of nTregs pharmacologically expanded in vivo in preventing acute GVHD without abrogation of the beneficial graft-versus-leukemia effect.
Journal ArticleDOI

Initiation and characterization of small cell lung cancer patient-derived xenografts from ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspirates.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that PDX tumor models can be efficiently established from primary SCLC transbronchial needle aspirates, even after overnight shipping, and that resulting xenograft tumors are similar to matched primary tumors in cancer patients by both histology and chemo-sensitivity.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Liposomal Formulation of KRN7000 (RGI-2001) Potently Reduces GvHD Lethality through the Expansion of CD4+Foxp3+ Regulatory T Cells in Murine Models

TL;DR: Results strongly suggest that RGI-2001 promotes the expansion of donor-derived Tregs which specifically suppress T-cell responses against host alloantigens, thereby reducing the GvHD lethality of mice that survived greater than 100 days.
